“This altimeter watch is much better looking than many I've seen with the combination of a metal body and a moderate size (it does not stand out on my normal-sized wrists as the huge models from other manufacturers often do). However, the all-stainless-steel body is quite heavy. I have used the watch in the mountains in New Hampshire and Wyoming and found it to be very accurate, often erring less than 10 feet over the day, from elevations between 400 feet and 10,000 feet. One feature that I really like is the watch's ability to give a true barometer reading (adjusted to sea level) the way the airports / weather stations do. This is a boon for weather buffs like me. It also allows you to calibrate your altimeter even if you don't know your present altitude, if you have access to a nearby weather station's statistics. The only gripe I have about the watch is that the barometer/altimeter becomes inaccurate, by several hundred feet, when wet. I don't know if this is a feature common to these devices, but it happened both after wearing it in the shower and after a fall into deep slushy snow. In both cases the readings returned to normal after the watch dried out fully in a few hours. It was not affected by moderate rain showers.”
